This is a great article and it tells how Common Core, a wolf in sheep's clothing, was brought into our states. The states were desparate for money, so they bought in -- most of them before the standards have even been written. Because how bad could they be, right?

To the Common Core supporters, you have repeatedly failed to show how this will help our students one iota. This package of standards is completely unproven, and yet you are on your knees worshiping it as though it was brought down from the heavens on stone tablets.

Nobody is worshipping the Common Core standards.

Meanwhile, the Common Core opponents have repeatedly failed to explain what "proven" would entail, and whether any other standards are "proven" at a level that meets their approval.

Also, it's a myth that the states adopted the standards before they were written. If you want to prove your claim, please provide the dates that each Common Core-adopting state adopted the Common Core standards.[/quote]

+1. Also, CC opponents have failed to show that the standards will *not* help our students. They also seem to be under the false assumption that in the absence of CC, there will be no standards or high stakes testing. [/quote]
